Benefits of Baby Swimming 2mm bleed-page-002.jpg

And if that isn't enough, there are all the benefits of swimming to take into account.

Client Testimonials

I always knew that when I had children I wanted them to start swimming lessons.

I wasn't a confident swimmer at all growing up, or even now. With Noah's diagnosis of visual impairment, I thought it was even more important to do it!

 

I was so nervous as Noah was premature so really small! I didn't know how much he was going to be able to see, so would he ever be able to develop skills like the others? Also, how was I going to cope as I wasn't a confident swimmer! I spoke with Kim about all my worries and she talked me through everything and answered all of my questions. Kim completely reassured me and made me feel confident in taking the next steps!

 

Our first lesson was with Poppy who was so excited to meet everyone! She was happy, bubbly and confident! (Always help being a teacher!)

 

We made some amazing friends in the other parents and children. We all cheered each other on and made a fuss of all the new skills the children had learnt!

 

I had been suffering with postnatal depression, but going swimming every week and building that 1-1 bond with Noah was just what we both needed!

 

We now go swimming every Saturday and Noah absolutely loves it! He practices his kicky legs in the bath, owns all the WB fish and splashes around in and under the water without a care in the world! Noahs Visual Impairment hasn't affected him what so ever! All of the WB team and our WB community have been amazing! We definitely made the right decision!

'Evie has been swimming since she was 3 months old, Water babies started her on her swim journey and she is now in stage 9 and swims in competitions for her club at only 8 years old!

She absolutely loves swimming and is growing every week in her sessions!
This is all thanks to her amazing teachers. 

We would recommend anyone to swim with water babies, it’s a life skill, so thank you!'

'Daisy started with Water Babies when she was 4 months old and has been swimming ever since.

We swam through the whole Water Babies programme and during that time I loved it that much, I became a Water Babies teacher

Water Babies has been life-changing for us!'
